Abstract: On a mobile communication device there are many more possible workflows that could be followed given the available functions of that device. These may include, but are not limited to, “click to call”, “click to locate”, “click to SMS”, “click to send a picture”, “click to handle later”, and can be constrained only by the available and accessible functionality of the user's device. A list of actions to be made available associated with an advertisement are provided along with an iconic visual representation of those actions for the user to identify what the resultant workflow will be if they activate the action. The list can be presented as selectable actions within the advertisement, on a sub menu activated by a dedicated device key or assigned softkey, or directly activated by using dedicated device keys or assigned soft keys, or other user-to-device interaction methods.

Abstract: An end-to-end mobile advertising system characterizes user behavior (e.g., location, interaction with advertisements on a mobile communication device, etc.) in order to select micro-targeted advertisements. A marketplace platform handles the formatting required for presentation suitable for mobile communication devices in accordance with negotiated tags for a desired audience (“reach”), for a suitable number of presentations (“frequency”) and for an effective duration (“time”) within a particular scheduled window. A condition of schedule for a timed coupon advertisement campaign is supported. Effectiveness is gauged even in the instance of impression advertisements by monitoring user location and/or interaction with the communication device to see a change in behavior (e.g., does not go to a competitor as forecasted, does go to a location of the advertiser, calls the advertiser, clips the advertisement for future reference, etc.).
